AirPods headphones in Russia will begin to be repaired under warranty only if there is a receipt from the country of initial sale, informs network publication Rozetked referred to the founder of Fixed.one SC Dmitry Druzhbin. Such a decision will especially affect the owners of gadgets that came to Russia through “parallel import”.
It is noted that warranty service for “gray” and “parallel” Apple headphones will now be possible only if there is a receipt confirming the purchase in the country of sale. For example, the owner of headphones intended for sale in Japan must have a receipt confirming their purchase from a Japanese store.
Also, according to Druzhbin, similar rules will apply to other Apple gadgets in the near future.
Apple has yet to comment on the situation.
